The Besnard Lakes end this week on a high note. We’re talking a new video for their “People Of The Sticks.” Directed by Joseph Yarmuch and Peros Kolyvas, the video features Besnard members as drugs that you can take while doing gymnastics. Talk about performance enhancers! Is this making any sense to you? Just watch above or at Rolling Stone where it premiered yesterday.

The Besnard Lakes are all set to tour the US/UK in support of their soon-to-be-released album Until in Excess, Imperceptible UFO. Joining them through April 18 to April 25 is none other than fellow Montrealites & Secretly Canadian band SUUNS, who are also touring in support of their new album, Images Du Futur. See the full schedule below.

The Besnard Lakes bring you their fourth album – Until In Excess, Imperceptible UFO. It’s an absolutely gorgeous work, set for release on April 2. Jace Lasek and Olga Goreas produced, record and mixed the record and then sent it over to Greg Calbi at Sterling Sound for mastering. You’ll also hear Moonface’s Spencer Krug, Mike Bigelow, The Barr Brothers’ Sarah Page, Monica Guenter and the Fifth String Liberation Singers’ Choir on the recordings. See the full track list below.

NPR premiered the first single, “People Of The Sticks,” this morning. You can stream the new track above.

“…it’s safe to say we’re in for another soaringly gorgeous record from the Canadian rock group.” – Bob Boilen, All Songs Considered
